Black & Ugly x Denzil Porter


Black & Ugly Clothing, is a socially and politically conscious urban clothing line, founded by Sherifa Gayle. The line will go on sale to the public on February 11, 2011 via www.blacknugly.com; just in time for Black History Month. The site will have Black & Ugly's Spring/Summer 2011 unisex collection ready for purchase. The collection features designs of Pharaoh and Nefertiti in rich African inspired hues. The line will launch with t-shirts, crewneck sweaters, cardigans, hats and pins. As the weather begins to warm up in 2011, Black & Ugly Clothing will expand into jackets and more accessories.

To kick off fashion week, B&U will be hosting their launch party Friday, February 11, 2011 at Madame X Bar and Lounge located at 94 West Houston Street in New York City. Doors open at 7pm and the collection will be showcased during a fashion show beginning promptly at 8pm. The show will be followed by a performance by rapper Denzil Porter (formerly known as Young Flame), and a raffle giving participants a chance to win a Black & Ugly sweater. Guests will be able to purchase pieces from the line while mingling and celebrating the launch of the website.

The website will be linked to the non-profit organization DORCAS (Development Organization Reaching Children to Achieve Success), catering to the educational and social needs of today's youth and their families. BlacknUgly.com will also provide information on upcoming events and news within the Black community and events that lend a helping hand to the youth. Sherifa Gayle founded Black & Ugly Clothing in December 2008. Sherifa wanted to start a pro-black line with a message representing her people's past struggles, present accomplishments and their future endeavors; an Afro-centric inspired line that caters to the urban sense and beyond.
